   You've never peeled off the "Crucial" sticker slapped atop the modules   
   to see just whose chips were underneath.  In addition, the JEDEC specs   
   set by Crucial actually overclock the chips, but then Crucial ensured   
   the chips were spec'ed to run overclocked stabily.  Crucial is usually   
   better than Kingston, but I still prefer G.Skill, especially their   
   warranty coverage that is lifetime, and quick.
